A Compliment
I've been handed a compliment,
And I don't know what to do.
It's genuine and simple.
Could it possibly be true?
It's too long since I received one,
Wrapped only by a smile.
It shocked me into feeling,
I haven't given one in a while.

Real compliments are such rare things. I have found that some compliments are like candy, common and short-lived, but others are deeply touching. Sometimes I am totally unprepared for receiving a real compliment but it only makes me appreciate how rare and precious they are.
